Welcome to the Amazing Universe Campaign Setting (Super-Powered by M&M)
 |
Every story needs a beginning¸ and the hero of every story needs their origin story. While we may never learn the full truth of how superhuman powers came to exist in our world¸ we do know a great deal about the first two heroes of our times. Indeed¸ the first two humans to acquire superpowers are still alive¸ albeit retired.
From what history tells us¸ the first human to acquire superpowers was Adam Cross¸ better known to the world first as Major Victory and eventually as Victory. He appeared on the public stage in the waning years roughly 70 years ago. When people first saw proof of Victory's abilities¸ they reacted in shock and fear to see a man who could fly¸ bend steel bars with his bare hands¸ and ignore tank shells striking him in the chest. Given the uncertainty of the time and the growing fear of "The Red Menace¸” however¸ the public came to see Victory as their protector and a true patriot. Rather than act like some sort of demigod¸ he upheld the law¸ more importantly¸ never considered himself above the law. Here was an All-American hero people could cheer and support¸ secure in the knowledge they enjoyed an advantage over the rest of the world.
